Tips for a Safe and Even Burn:
1. First Burn Matters
The first time you light your candle, let it burn until the entire top layer of wax melts into a liquid pool reaching the edges of the container. Before each use, trim the wick to approximately 5mm for a clean, steady flame.
2. Safety First
Using candles responsibly is key. Keep these safety tips in mind:
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Limit each burn session to no more than 4 hours.
- Place candles out of reach of children and pets.
- Ensure a 10cm distance between burning candles.
- Keep candles away from flammable materials and avoid burning them in a drafty area.

3. Wick Care
- Always trim the wick to 5mm before lighting.
- Stop burning the candle when about 5mm of wax remains at the bottom.
- Snuff out the flame instead of blowing it out to prevent splattering wax.
- Keep the wax pool free from debris, such as matches or wick trimmings.

4. Storage & Placement Tips
-Place candles on heat-resistant surfaces to avoid damaging furniture.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve colour and quality.
- Use a lid or container to protect unused candles from dust and dirt.
- Rotate your candles occasionally to prevent uneven burning or one-sided tunneling.
